Introit (Ps 83: 10-11, 2-3)Protéctor noster, áspice, Deus, et réspice in fáciem Christi tui: quia mélior est dies una in átriis tuis super mília.Vs. Quam dilécta tabernácula tua, Dómine virtútum! concupíscit, et déficit ánima mea in átria Dómini.Vs. Glória Patri, et Fílio, et Spirítui Sancto. Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper, et in saécula sæculórum. Amen.Behold, O God our protector, and consider the face of your Anointed; for one day in your house is better than a thousand elsewhere.Vs. How lovely is your tabernacle, O Lord of hosts! My soul longs and pines after the courts of the Lord.Vs. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

Gradual (Ps 117: 8-9)Bonum est confidére in Dómino, quam confidére in hómine.Vs. Bonum est speráre in Dómino, quam speráre in princípibus.It is better to confide in the Lord than to have confidence in man.Vs. Better is it to trust in the Lord than to trust in princes.
